In Curaçao, an escaped convict has been caught, after being on the run for two months. Liomar W. was arrested sitting in a car with his father.

Police fired shots during the arrest action. His father has been wounded, the NOS reports. The 26-year old man was sent to prison for the murder of a Dutch couple in 2005. He got 24 years for the murder, which his sister also had a role in.

W. broke out of prison in May together with another criminal, Eni C., from the former Bon Futuro prison in Willemstad. They overpowered two wardens before climbing over the prison walls using a long stick. C. was picked up a few days later.

This was W.'s second prison break. In 2009, he was also on the lam for some time. He was picked up by police a few weeks later.
